So far, it sounds like no fatalities as a result of the Foreign Ministry airstrike, 10 or so injured just reported by a Fox reporter.
There was another airstrike at about the same time elsewhere,,

They bombed it at 1:30 AM. It's a bit more than a symbolic gesture, but it's less than an act of war, because it was clearly planned to avoid killing anyone in the building.

Do you think this will be a mini shock and awe or just this symbolic strike? Probably just symbolic. They'll probably pause a bit now and see if Hamas is ready to talk turkey. If Hamas keeps it's bull up then I'm sure there will be more and more to follow.
To: steveegg
They haven't confirmed yet if it was a missile or bomb,,
The building was not levelled but it ain't in good shape either. probably a 1000 pounder, maybe smaller

Now it sounds like a missile ,, top 2 or 3 stories took bulk of hit damage.
a 2000 pounder would have guaranteed casualties..

This could be real ugly real fast - for the Pali's. Israel isn't playing around any more. It get's ugly only if the other side fights back. And the Pali's are out of money.
